Bill, Holy shit black bear! No bear but I did see the biggest wild turkey ever, close to pasadena. Doug tags are becoming limited in the PB and this get would be easy with the DRZ, getting the grab on a street bike should count for something

LOL Bob. No time in any case. I went from riding every weekend in the woods, to only three times out so far this year alone.

New Tag. This is the Alloway Family Monument. It is accessible with a street bike. The roads that lead to it are all sand, but not too soft. There are some mud holes.

I could not get all the words on the monument in the photo frame. The monument is inscribed with the following words:

The cultivated blueberry industry started in the New Jersey Pinelands. On this site, James Garfield Alloway established one of the world’s first blueberry farms. Not only was it one of the first, but for many years it was one of the most productive.

The hard work of James Garfield Alloway, his wife, Anna Shinske (Choroczynski) Alloway, and his son, Mark Andrew Alloway made this piece of Pinelands a garden spot. Their pioneering efforts helped establish blueberry cultivation.

This monument is dedicated to their memory by James Garfield DeMarco. Now abandoned and returning to forest, the Alloway Farm belongs to the State of New Jersey.
